The trouble with eBay is you cannot be competitive dues to them charging such crazy fees.
They do not understand basics. They spout about increases in costs as if we are all too thick to see through them.
If in basic terms the followng happens.
2022
item was costing us £100 we sell for £200 freepost because there is no such thing but ebay dont like you seeing how much they are taking for doing nothing.
so from the £200 at 10% fees eBay made £20.
2023
The item now costs us £110 and we have to sell for £220 therefore without increasing fees ebay make £22
You also have to remember that your final price loses postal costs which ebay then also take 11% of. so no need to increase their costs the natural economics gives them increases.
Plus ebay has a shop window for us all and we apy for that. then if you need to be actuall at the shop window fron to be seen you have to offer more money if you dont them you are at the back out of site behind all the big boys.
Now that item costs us
